please read books
the trailer for THE ROOST is one of my favorite things i ever cut (i was 22!) 🦇
split screens! freeze frames! lo fi piano puzzle title treatment!
i worry every day i will never top the things i did when i was literally half the age i am now
(the new disc is for sale now at @vinsyn.bsky.social !)
to be fair the 1990 "He Was a Friend of Mine" is pretty solid tho
first half of this tape is incredible, otherwordly. the 2nd half has the worst jump scare i've ever experienced: a 1990 recording of McGuinn/Crosby/Hillman singing "From a Distance," the most heinous garbage we were forced to sing in middle school chorus
"god is watching us... from a distance"
No
Brian once said Ti (West) turned 20 minutes of movie into 80, and, knowing he was kinda right, Ti and I joked about this for years.
what i'm wondering now, given your undertone review, is if brian is saying that my sound design on ti's movies was not good enough to pad them out 😏😎😏😎😏😎😏😉😉😉
"PARTIALLY DEVOURED: How Night of the Living Dead Saved My Life & Changed the World" is OUT NOW!

+

i like how when you watch fresh prince on hulu it doesn't even give you the skip intro button because let's be honest you would never
rip country joe. 1-2-3 what are we fighting for runs through my head every single day.
my favorite album cover of all my dad's collection; maybe of all records. except there was never any fish game inside - my dad must have lost it.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!
(if / when you do, let me know if you need an extra blabbermouth in the mix...!)
i think you know what you have to do today
pretty obsessed with the QUALITAPE logo

i ran out of space but the next one would be space quest iv
I know what I'm getting on Bandcamp Friday. Eliane Radigue's feedback pieces are like, the heaviest.
killing other people to solve problems should be an absolute last resort that is literally painful to do and instead you have this bloodthirsty fox news drunk going on TV daily and bragging about it. it's fucking awful.
the album is dedicated to Young as well
"In dedication to The Young Mountain of the East, LaMonte—Awakener of Ancient Dreams”
Looks like two cases side by side - but surprise! It’s not! It is, in fact, the most impossible case shape to shelve with any other cases!
Terry Riley’s incredible response piece to La Monte Young’s crucial THE WELL TUNED PIANO
